Butch Bockmier

President - COO

Butch co-founded Park Place LTD in 1987, and what started as a small wholesale dealer in 1987, Butch has helped make into one of the premier full service special interest dealerships on the West Coast. He has nearly three decades of experience in the automotive business and puts this expertise to work overseeing much of the day-to-day operations of Park Place.

With a passion for collector and special interest vehicles, and especially vintage Corvettes, Butch ensures we always have some of the most interesting and diverse inventories of collectable cars on the West Coast. He also spearheads Park Place’s participation in many of the major collector car and highline auctions, including all of Barrett-Jackson’s events.

Butch lives in Bellevue, WA with his wife, Michelle, and their daughters, Stacia and Alexa. For his ultimate “Dream Garage,” he says he would have a hard time narrowing it down, but when pressed would pick a ’57 Continental Mark II, a carbon fiber bodied CRC “62” C5 Corvette finished in Torch Red with a red leather interior, and a Black Superformance Cobra, “like the one I already have!”.

Ryan truly believes that customers are the most important asset we have and says, “If we provide our customers with the highest level of service for all their automotive needs, they will be our customers for life.” And this belief manifests itself in every employee of our dealership.

Ryan currently resides in Issaquah, WA with his wife and son, and in his free time, you will find him at a local autocross or taking part in Track Days. “I always wanted to be a race car driver, so this is my way of living my own dream – unfortunately funded by my own pocketbook!“ In the winter months he can be found frequenting one of the local ski resorts in his M3.

When pressed, David admits, "I have to say the Cooper S is one of my favorites to drive everyday, but I miss my 911 the most."

According to David, Park Place is the dream place for any car enthusiast. "Very few Dealerships have the variety, depth, and quality of vehicles we have. Even fewer have the quality of people we have, and none have the fun we have!" Much of Bruski's business comes from return customers and referrals. His vast wealth of knowledge and integrity will make your purchase decision uncomplicated and enjoyable. "Just ask for Bruski."

Rene thinks that Park Place is a Mecca for “car guys/gals” of all types – and not just because of the cars, but also the people. “Not only is our staff full of gear-heads, but our customers are often the same way! So many of them come back again and again that they become part of the Park Place family along with the rest of us.”

His current goal is to build a Hill Climb car that he can compete with in some of the local events. He is partially there with his 1988 Mazda 323 GTX, an AWD, Turbo homologation special rally car, but this goal will still take some time.
